About this job

Our company is looking for new CDL-A holders near London, KY to join a Midwest regional fleet. You'll run dry van freight across Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois, heading out Monday and returning home every Saturday.

How training works

  • If you hold a CDL-A but have no experience, you'll first ride along with a driver trainer on actual loads, earning $850 per week.
  • Once your trainer clears you, you'll move into your own truck at full pay.
  • Your first 3 months running solo come with a $1,000 weekly pay guarantee.
  • Qualified CDL-A school grads need 120+ hours of training from an accredited program.
  • Already experienced? With 6 months OTR in the past year, or 12 months in the past 5 years, you can skip training and start in your own truck right away.

What you'll haul

  • Dry van trailers
  • 1,500 to 1,800 miles weekly
  • A mix of drop and hook, live loads, live unloads and preloads
  • Fixed Monday-out, Saturday-home schedule

Pay

  • Typical weekly earnings range from $1,000 to $1,400
  • Mileage pay starts at 56 cents per mile, rising to 59 cents at the 6-month mark
  • Short-haul load pay: $40 for loads under 150 miles, $25 for 150-250 miles
  • Additional $15 stop pay plus performance bonus
  • $300 orientation pay, with travel costs to orientation covered

Benefits

  • Medical, dental and vision coverage starting at 30 days
  • 401k with a company match
  • Paid time off

Requirements

  • Valid Class A CDL, age 21 or older
  • No more than 2 moving violations within the past 2 years
  • Must pass a DOT physical and drug test
